6-3 Measures of Variation
Ms. Snow asks some of her students how many pets they have. The responses are 9, 0, 4, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, and 2 pets.
Quartiles are three values, one of which is the median, that divide a data set into fourths. Each quartile contains one-fourth, or 25%, of the data.
6-3 Measures of Variation
The interquartile range (IQR) is the difference between the first and third quartiles.
•It is a measure of the spread of the middle 50% of the data. •A small interquartile range means that the data in the middle of the set are close in value. •A large interquartile range means that the data in the middle are spread out.

Additional Example 1: Making a Box-and-Whisker PlotThe average number of hours that several students watch television in a day is given. Use the data to make a box-and-whisker plot: 2, 1, 5, 2, 1, 2, 3, 2, 2.
Step 1 Order the data from least to greatest.1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 5
Step 2 Find the least and greatest values, the median, and the upper and lower quartiles.

Additional Example 2: Finding the Interquartile RangeFind the inter-quartile range for the data set 87, 71, 72, 73, 84, 92, 73.
71, 72, 73, 73, 84, 87, 82
84,73,71, 72, 73, 8287, Find the median and quartiles
IQR=87-72=15 Find the difference between the first quartile (72) and the third quartile (87).
The inter-quartile range is 15.
